30elm is a recently launched community for home owners and interior designers, to network and collaborate on home design projects.With 30elm, you can peruse the site’s content, which comes from other users as well as professionals in the industry, such as interior design teams. Check out the case studies, which are provided by professionals, and highlight specific projects for home design. This is a good way to incorporate premium content into the site, and a good way for designers to promote their work.

You can also start your own project, choose the basic criteria, and blog about your process, adding items from your folder, which holds things you’ve collected from around the site. Invite others to join your team for group collaboration, or find professionals to help you. With 30elm, you can let the professionals find you as well. In this sense, 30elm is a bit like ThemBid and DoMyStuff, where a marketplace has been installed for customers and service providers to find each other.30elm could benefit from expanding its project-planning tools. With the existing questionnaire for starting a new project, information could be sent to the user based on their selection for a particular project. This would work better once the site has increased in content. As 30elm is aiming to take the practical approach to home design, some online design and collaboration tools such as Octopz’s whiteboard, and FloorPlanner and MyDesignIn would be very helpful.
